" The dishes at Zen Modern Asian Bistro strike the right balance between traditional and modern Asian cuisine. We ordered several items to share and each was delicious in its own way. However, I felt that some items could use a bit more seasoning to pop. It’s a nice casual place, but not necessarily the best for a special occasion due to the atmosphere. " (*Curated Review*)

" I came by for a quick dinner, and while the food was okay, it lacked that wow factor. The ambience was more basic than I expected, and I felt my order took longer than it should have. The flavors were all-right but nothing too memorable. I would recommend it for a casual bite but wouldn't go out of my way for a second visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" My lunch visit to Zen Modern Asian Bistro was a mixed bag. The food itself was quite tasty, especially the wings and tempura. However, there was a lengthy wait for our food, and I could see the kitchen was overwhelmed at the lunch rush. Even with the service hiccup, I'd come back for the food as it tastes freshly made, and the flavors are respectable. Just a bit of patience is required during busy times! " (*Curated Review*)

" Last weekend, I treated myself to Zen Modern Asian Bistro after a long week, and wow, what a reward! I tried their Drunken Noodles for the first time, and it was bursting with flavor without sacrificing authenticity. The staff served us with a smile, and I appreciated being seated promptly. My friend ordered sushi and said it was the best she's had in a long time. I’ll definitely be returning! " (*Curated Review*)

" The Zen Modern Asian Bistro was recommended by a friend, and it did not disappoint! Their signature dishes really shine in flavor and quality. I particularly enjoyed how generous the portions were, allowing for leftover lunch the next day. The staff was attentive, and while the space is small, the warmth of the service more than compensates for it. I’ll surely be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I must say, Zen Bistro doesn’t compromise on taste! The dumplings are some of the best I’ve had, and the selection of noodle dishes is diverse. I have been back several times, and each time my palate has been well pleased. The atmosphere could be improved, but the food definitely makes up for it. Just be prepared, as it could get a bit crowded. " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is a hidden gem! The wings are the best I’ve had, cooked to perfection and packed with flavor. The atmosphere is casual, which I appreciate, and the staff is super friendly. It’s not the cheapest restaurant out there, but the prices reflect the quality and portion sizes. Zen Bistro is definitely worth a visit, especially for the wings! " (*Curated Review*)
